i discovered a whole lotta goodness at the museum of contemporary art in sydney last week. most notably a stellar 24-hour film aptly-titled "the clock" by christian marclay (everyone's talking about it down under), in addition to an awe-inspiring piece of work by nike savvas (my new fave). and the journey continues...

pellegrini's is an oldschool, ultra-authentic trattoria located in the heart of melbourne with the best-ever coffee on the planet. sisto is the man in charge - i complimented him on his purple shirt and he asked me to go steady. i'm not kidding. that's his mother cooking in the kitchen. at first she didn't want to take her photo but then i spoke some italian to her and she posed. bless. there's no website (surprise surprise) but if you can, go to 66 bourke street in the city to experience it for yourself. put simply: you haven't been to melbourne if you haven't been to pellegrini's.

keep in mind i've been living in los angeles for the past five years..that said i'm REALLY embracing winter in australia right now and how better to show it than via a pair of kick-ass sunglasses (cutler & gross) and my absolute favorite accessory on the market right now (beg, borrow or steal people, these designs are HOT: maison michel head pieces). work it girls...ps: CLEARLY inspired by gabriela (below).

i spotted these shots of l.a-based designer gabriela artigas on her instagram last week and begged her to send me a few images from the series titled "you can only recognize me by the lips." so true and so totally iconic!
